Vi achieves PCI DSS 4.0 certification, leads telecom security in India

Vi has achieved a technological milestone by becoming the first Indian telecom operator to secure the Payment Card Industry-Data Security Standard version 4.0 (PCI DSS 4.0) certification. This achievement marks a significant advancement in telecom security, reflecting Vi’s commitment to employing cutting-edge technology to protect customer data.

The PCI DSS 4.0 certification, developed by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), represents the forefront of security technology.
